James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence didn't know that 12 men were arrested in the UK for planning a series of massive terrorist attacks this week. Diane Sawyer asked him two days ago if he knew about it and all she got was a blank stare from the former lieutenant general.
This gives Military Intelligence a new meaning. Well actually it just reinforces the old adage that military and intelligence are conflicting terms.
I mean, where the heck has this guy been.
Btw.....this imbecile also supported Bush's claim that WMDs were in Iraq.
"As the former head of the Pentagons National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Clapper played a key role in promoting the Bush administrations claim that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction prior to the 2003 invasion."[4] Indeed, in 2003, the New York Times reported that Clapper attempted to explain the absence of WMDs in Iraq by asserting that the weapons materials were "unquestionably" shipped out of Iraq to Syria and other countries just before the American invasion, a "personal assessment" which Clapper's own agency head at the time, David Burpee, "could not provide further evidence to support."

This is the type of people Obama has placed the security of this country in. I would expect this of a teenager but not the man directing our intelligence agencies as we speak.
